About this event
Hallie Rubenhold won the 2019 Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-fiction for her uncovering of the lives of Jack the Ripper’s victims, The Five. Offering new insights and drawing on previously unseen or unpublished material, the book’s focus is entirely on the women and not on their murderer.
Come and hear Hallie and Toby Mundy, director of the Baillie Gifford Prize, discuss The Five in detail and answer audience questions at what is set to be an enthralling evening event.
'An angry and important work of historical detection, calling time on the misogyny that has fed the Ripper myth. Powerful and shaming.' - GUARDIAN
